      In the past few days, I was engaged in meeting with old classmates. Time is limited, and I seldom logged in and browsed the blogs. I learned my lesson again. You will believe how simple-minded I am this time if you know the ropes. Before I went to meet my friends in their universities, a classmate-to-be reminded me that the acceptance notification would be arrived recently. He asked me to check the news on the Graduate Enrollment Information Network of China University of Geosciences. I was not myself that day, a little sick and didnot want to bother to find out the network from my mailbox. Later I went out, chatting, shopping all day long with my friends, totally forget I should check the express delivery on the internet. The address I wrote was not our university, but a work unit in Chenzhou, where Ruis's mother works there. The problem is I didnot write aunt's name, and I thought the acceptance notification would be delivered to aunt's department, which was on the first floor of the office building, since I often saw many express deliveries will be sent there when I passed by. Well, it turned out that the acceptance notification was delivered to General Affairs Office. Nobody knew my name there, and nobody came to claim the parcel. So the accpetance notification was delivered back to Wuhan. Several days later I will go back to school to collect the graduate certification, and apply for the clearance. The department  chairman asked me to give our department a copy of my acceptance notification if I receive. Now I cannot get the acceptance notification in time. You cannot imagine how depressed I was last night. Luckily I called Ruis's uncle, who is in Wuhan, he promised me to take the accpetance notification by then. If necessary, he will send a fax to me. I was relieved but I owed him again. If I checked the news on the website earlier, things wouldnot be like that. If I took it seriously, asked Ruis to check the parcel, things wouldnot be like that. Whatever, it was my own fault.
 
      Next time if I want to have a good time with my friends, I must deal with the important things at hand. Yesterday I was very crazy, since I bought a handbag with Jie in the pedestrian street the day before yesterday. But I came to Hunan Normal Unversity to see Yu, and I bought another handbag there. Yu was also crazy, for she bought two at a time. Haha..The moment I entered the shop, I falled in love with the bright red bag at first sight. Considering I had bought one, I didnot buy it although I love it very much. How regretful I was! The handbag I bought in the pedestrian street was an azure oblong one, and you know, it was not so cheap to buy things near the pedestrian street. The quality of the bright red bag is not inferior to the azure one, or it is better but with lower price. The shopkeeper is a sweet big sister, who is a designer of bags, so she doesn't make money by selling bags. She told us the truth the bag came from speciality store. I like it very much and the shopkeeper also advised me to buy it, since the bag seemed to be designed for me. Anyway it was really a bargain if I took it. But I refused. Yu also liked it, and she felt satisfied with another several bags, too. At last, she took the bright red one I love and another one. We didnot went away immediately the money was paid. Yu still chose bags and I was still hesistating. Haha..You know what? Yu beared the pain to give up the red since she picked another one. So I determined to buy the red. We both were crazy because I bought two bags within two days, she bought two at a time. Later, another friend Yao came and we talked with her how crazy we two were. I suggest her to go to see that shop when we pass by. Ha. To our surprise, she also bought one. The sweet sister smiles ear to ear. I really like her, and I believe if one wants the goods in his/her shop be favored by customers, one should learn from her. I alledged that I won't buy a new bag within two years. Hope I can promise it! Haha.
 
      Something sad happened. Another tragedy, a freshman from our English department jumped off the classroom building, and died instantly. Many explanations have been offered. Some said the final examination held these days disappointed her. Some said she had the symptom of depression. I do not know the situation, what I thought at the first time was how heartbroken her parents will be. Their loved daughter they raised so many years gone suddenly. All things are of no consequence just like floating clouds. How can one be so weak-minded? The education is really important. Equally important is communication. We should care more about the depressed friends around us. Nothing is important than our own life. Learn to cherish our precious life.

Watch out! Beauty is only skin deep.

Just kidding! They say” women always are crazy about shopping” and now you two are proving the saying again. It is natural for a girl to be attracted to beauty things like fashionable clothes or cosmetics or latest hand bags. That is why more and more girls care about nothing but to look beautiful. That is why the business of ladies fashion is so large. That is why every time when I follow my wife to the supermarkets I feel so tired. But it doesn’t matter! As longs as your ladies are feeling happy!

Men should be born for protecting women, Right?

And my daughter is not an exception. She is only six years old but she is crazy about shopping. When she goes to the supermarket, she will force me to buy clothes and toys for her. If don’t she will unhappy for weeks. What’s more! She often transfers her mother’s attention and rubs the skin care products all over her little face. That’s not good for her skin I was telling her so many times but it was no use.  

Girls are so cute! But they should also pay more attention to their character when seeking beautiful looks. Because when you have characters you have class.

To call the one who jumped off the building stupid would be an insult of stupid people. Why do end his own life. A person can face dead what else can’t face! These people are so selfishness. They think life is all about himself. A person is not just for himself but for the society. How much love their parents put on them, raising a baby up to an adult is so hard. Their parents, their older generations, their teachers are supporting them for so long. And they have gone without a word. This is call selfishness.

These all are not their faults. The university must responsible for the accident and the society also must responsible for the result. I think the Chinese educational system has a big problem. And the problem can be so serious. We shouldn't just offer knowledge. we should teach them right from wrong. We should try to let them understand what is called responsible. But now as I looked around our school money culture is everywhere. Almost all the parents give “gifts” to teachers during the big holiday. The “gifts” is not to thank the teacher for hard work but to let the teacher take “another look” at their kids.

If you don’t do that, our teacher will ignore your children. To make matters worse some teachers even start some extra classes for the students but the parents have to pay an extra fee. And the teachers will teach the most import things during their extra classes. What a great idea for making money.

Teacher is a great job on the earth! It seems not true sometimes. Money culture is the murderer!
And looking for a shortcut to be successful is another factor.

We are losing our moral values along the way to modernization. Is that whose fault?

Haha..Indeed, we can't resist the temptation to buy the beautiful things. To tell you the truth, I did not realize the concept of being beautiful or ugly until I entered the university. I paid little attention to my apperance or the clothes I was wearing. So you can imagine how I look like when I was in middle school. Haha..

Yes, we should not just focus on the beautiful things or just try to look attractive, we should also pay more attention to the inner beauty. The outer beauty will fade as time goes on, but the inner beauty will make one look beautiful all the time.

As for the girl, I really feel it is a pity. You are right. She was brave enough to choose to death, what else she cannot conquer? Our life not only belong to us, but also belong to the people love us.

I don't like several teachers I met when I was in high school. They implied the students to give gifts or money to them. They prefered those students whose parents did send gifts or ask them to have dinner or so. Sigh...

You must have a happy family, best wishes to your whole family. Heihei.

It depends on ourselves, I think. How to define mediocrity and what kind of life we dream to live..
Unavoidably, I read the headline news on the website recently. I hope they will not divorce.

i believe it is natural for girls to seek being beautiful or after anything beautiful. human nature. without these girls/women, this world would be much more boring. the key is balance. as you said inner beauty can be more lasting.
so you have been admitted to a graduate school in wuhan? congratulations! what is your major this time? happy for you!

Yeah, I believe the inner beauty is more important than the outer beauty. I mentioned in the blogs written before, heihei, I didn't want to be enrolled, but this time God made a joke with me, I was admitted, not as what I expected. Because at first I thought the best outcome is I fail in the exam, stupid? heihei. Now I have changed my mind, and I believe I will benefit from the future study. I still choose the English major, mainly about the translation.

Today is Father's Day, Happy Father's Day.

So what's your opinion about they two?
Reply 逍遥飞吧 2011-6-19 17:53
l think the husband was without any fault and the wife should not deserve any mercy。and as a man like xietingfen,he didnt expect his wife any help for his family  but loyalty。but the bottom line has been broken by his wife。if l were him,l would divorce with that lost woman immediately。
